What a magical children series this was and still is. I can remember watching this as a 14 year old in the mid eighties and was overjoyed when it was finally release on DVD as it had never been repeated since its first screening on BBC1 in late November/December of 1986 or has it ever been released on any other format until now. There are not many classic children's series stands the test of time, and this is one of them. Heartwarming relationship between grandson and grandmother, mischievous children ghosts, a majestic old spooky by charming manor house, Christmas, what more do we want. Buy it, watch it, and cherish this televisual gem as I do.
